Mozilla <1.7/Firefox <0.9/Thunderbird <0.7 - Info Disclosure

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The cert_TestHostName function in Mozilla before 1.7, Firefox before 0.9, and Thunderbird before 0.7, only checks the hostname portion of a certificate when the hostname portion of the URI is not a fully qualified domain name (FQDN), which allows remote attackers to spoof trusted certificates.
